| Front | Brocklehurst concluyó: -Lo he sabido por su bienhechora, por la caritativa y compasiva mujer que recogió a esta niña cuando quedó huérfana, educándola como a sus propios hijos, y cuya generosidad y bondad han sido tan mal pagadas por esta ingrata muchacha, que dicha señora tuvo que separarla de sus hijos, a fin de que con su corrupción no contaminase la pureza de aquellas inocentes criaturas. Ha venido aquí como los antiguos judíos al Betesda, para purificarse. |
